Empty

A material flow resource is empty, when no MU is booked on it and when the resource is not Failed, not Paused, or not Stopped. The empty time always is part of the Waiting time.

When the object has several processing stations, as for example the ParallelStation, you can query if an MU is located on a certain processing station. When the respective station is empty, the method returns true.

The Statistics Report shows the Empty Time below Resource Statistics of Stationary Resources.
